Connecting two Socket together

Question

Hi everyone !
Here is my little problem :
I have two objects in a software. Each of them have a Socket, and i need to connect them together.
How can i do that ? it seems i could with a ServerSocket, but ... is there an other way ?
If anyone has an idea ...
Thanks.

Here are more precisions :
I've just made a try on something. Here is a little piece of code :
<pre>
<font color="#a020f0">import</font> java.io.*;
<font color="#a020f0">import</font> java.net.*;
<font color="#2e8b57"><b>class</b></font> Obj{
<font color="#2e8b57"><b>public</b></font> InetSocketAddress address;
Socket s;
String name;
<font color="#2e8b57"><b>public</b></font> Obj(String n, <font color="#2e8b57"><b>int</b></font> port) <font color="#2e8b57"><b>throws</b></font> Exception {
name = n;
address = <font color="#a52a2a"><b>new</b></font> InetSocketAddress(<font color="#ff00ff">"127.0.0.1"</font>,port);
System.out.println(name + <font color="#ff00ff">" : port "</font> + address.getPort());
s = <font color="#a52a2a"><b>new</b></font> Socket();
<font color="#2e8b57"><b>public</b></font> <font color="#2e8b57"><b>void</b></font> connect(Obj o) <font color="#2e8b57"><b>throws</b></font> Exception {
s.connect(o.address);
<font color="#2e8b57"><b>public</b></font> <font color="#2e8b57"><b>static</b></font> <font color="#2e8b57"><b>void</b></font> main(String[] args) <font color="#2e8b57"><b>throws</b></font> Exception {
Obj obj1 = <font color="#a52a2a"><b>new</b></font> Obj(<font color="#ff00ff">"objet1"</font>,<font color="#ff00ff">2001</font>);
Obj obj2 = <font color="#a52a2a"><b>new</b></font> Obj(<font color="#ff00ff">"objet2"</font>,<font color="#ff00ff">2002</font>);
obj1.connect(obj2);
</pre>
And the result is :
Exception in thread "main" java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused
Well, i guess this comes from the fact that my Socket in Obj1 is not ready to recieve a connection ... is there something similar to the method accept() of ServerSocket for the sockets ?
